Your allegations of "political pull" are but more speculation.

>>> Not according to the published comments of his recruitment officer, who by all reports, was delighted to accept the enlistment of a 'Bush'.

>>> Also, Bush's ranking - several hundred persons behind more qualified applicants - on the waiting list is not in dispute... nor is the fact that he scored only one point above the minimum on the testing. One point lower and he would not have been qualified for enlistment... regardless of political pull.
